Are you sure the code you posted here is the code you really run?

I guess you want 'if' instead of 'unless', because you want to rename
the file if the re matches, not if it does not.

Second - you should use re.match(old) not /re/.match(old) since 're'
variable is already a Regexp.

Having these errors I doubt you would have any file renamed.
